As you can see that's almost all of them! You're a combo making genius, no doubt about that one. Of course, Husband will come in at some point and veto a bunch, but these are all so lovely and they just fit with my imagery. Thanks so so much sweetie!

Apollonia; interesting perspective. We're settled on out firsts, but we're using a "normal" middle for the more unusual firsts (Ingrid for Tinuviel for example). Which way we do it doesn't matter to us though. Thanks though!

Pernille; hi and welcome! Love your imagery for Huldra, Saga and Aurora. And don't worry, you're not stalkerish! Oh, I'm glad you didn't think about the organ thing with Morgana. Maybe it's just my siblings not wanting me to use Morgana? The thing with Hespera is bothering me a little bit. It does sound awfully close, and my sister brought it up when I was pregnant with my last one. But I'll leave her for now and we'll see... And you're not interfering, I love new voices chiming in and especially a norwegian one! Thanks so much, and I hope you'll enjoy this site very much.

Lex; you know, I do think about this sometimes (the theme thing, I mean, in case you're not in my head). Which might be why Morgana and Tinuviel feel like the front runners (along with Callisto, but for some reason this feels less Greek than the others - I don't know why that is!). I would ideally like my first two children to have different origin in their names (again, if I was having a boy it would be so easy!). Now to your gorgeous glorious combos:Callisto Ilmarë Giselle
Hespera Lilje Ondine
Hespera Stella Imladris
Hespera DaphneTitania
Hespera Aurelia Undómiel (you did it, you made me love Aurelia!)Isis Polyhymnia Mist (great minds think alike! Aren't they wonderful together?)IsisYavanna AlatárielMorganaOphelia Tinuviel (an old favourite)Morgana Silmariën Lorelei (eeeek!)
Tinuviel Eva Celebrian
Tinuviel Sonja Ancalimë
Tinuviel Pareerou LoreleiPandoraClemency ÉowynPandora Villanelle KaraPandora Pareerou Írimë (this is so flippin cute I want to squeeze your cheeks!)
You're too good at this stuff, Lex, that was basically me just copying and pasting. Thank you my sweet!

Sarah; ooooh, yay, I'm so glad you like it! I was ecstatic when I thought of it, Tinuviel CirceIngrid just works beautifully. And I adore the lack of a's, it counter acts Dita's a-filled name. It's so nice to get this feedback! I'm all smiles here. If you want to work on some combos, that would be lovely!! But only if you're up to it, I know you're busy and not feeling so well.

Belle; you posted while I posted! Hespera Eos Alatáriel, Hespera Silmariën Mist, Isis Niniane Melusine and Morgana Undómiel Mist are all beautiful, thank you so much!

Yay! I don't know what their deal with Morgana is. Maybe they have a different dialect than I do and put the emphasis on the organ- part? I'm from the east, just an hour outside of Oslo, so I pretty much speak the "normal" dialect.

I'm gonna try to do some combos (because it's so much more fun than my essay). I'm also gonna go out on a limb and include the Norwegian name Tiril (or Tililil, if you prefere, assuming you like it at all). It's an, in my opinion, underused gorgeous name, with great roots in Norwegian culture, and it translates to "seductive tones". How amazing is that?

I just did my top four. As you can see, I'm in Tinúviels corner. Hope you like some of them!

Pernille; Nah, my mum's from Oslo. We lived just outside of Oslo (on the west side) for a few years of my childhood. But... my family is weird, everyone's obsessed with words and such things. Oh I love Tiril! It was one of my favourites growing up. It's so beautiful, I simply forgot about it! Your combos all loook beautiful, I in particular love these:Tinúviel Huldra SilmariënTinúviel Circe EimyrjaTinúviel SagaLoreleiMorgana Tiril SilmariënMorganaLorelei ÉowynPandora Eimyrja GisellePandora Ilmarë OuraniaCallisto Alatáriel HecateCallistoSaga Undómiel

Thank you so much!!

So many pretty manes, and making first / middle combos is my favorite activity. I don't even know where to start.
Also, sorry if I'm repeating something here...:
